Singer/songwriter Kandi Burruss of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” and formerly of Xscape debuts her new single “Leave You” — exclusively on ESSENCE.com. Also, Kandi describes the inspiration behind the track… Exclusive from Kandi, describing the inspiration behind the song: “Working on this album, I knew I wanted to get back in the studio with Jazze Pha, a long-term friend and great producer. He and the two co-writers of the song are very talented people who I feel really understand me as an artist. “I went into the session wanting to record a real R&B song that took you back to my Xscape days. We were known for songs that felt good, had a great groove to them, and displayed strong vocals and hard hitting production. ‘Leave You’ — in my opinion — is my 2010 version of that. “The song was not about a specific situation of mine but more my desire to create that record everyone can relate to. If someone is not doing the things they did to get you when they have you — it is time to take that walk and leave!”
